I'm glad you can be with us.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3602017\" data-originallang=\"en\">It sounds like you have some good answers to some tough questions. This might be an odd question, but I want to understand this. Why is the perception out there amongst some Canadians\u2014I met with a group of veterans last week\u2014that the Canadian armed forces is pushing veterans who have mental difficulties out the door? Why do you think there's that perception? </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3602018\" data-originallang=\"en\">Despite the programs and despite the level of support, there is that sense in some of the legions in my riding, and I read about it in the local press. What do you think is going on there?</p>",

Ma question vous semblera peut-\u00eatre \u00e9trange, mais j'aimerais comprendre une chose. Comment se fait-il que certains Canadiens \u2014 j'ai rencontr\u00e9 un groupe de v\u00e9t\u00e9rans la semaine pass\u00e9e \u2014 croient que les Forces arm\u00e9es canadiennes montrent la porte aux v\u00e9t\u00e9rans qui \u00e9prouvent des difficult\u00e9s psychologiques? \u00c0 votre avis, qu'est-ce qui explique ce point de vue? </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3602018\" data-originallang=\"en\">Malgr\u00e9 les programmes et le soutien offert, c'est ce que pensent certains groupes de ma circonscription, et ce que j'ai lu dans la presse locale. D'apr\u00e8s vous, qu'est-ce qui explique cela?</p>"
